Power Plumbing Company

Excellent service. Answers phone. Calls back. Shows up on time. Quick and efficient. Always great to deal with. Highly recommend.

They know their business.

This is the second time we have used Power Plumbing of Portland and plumber, Jim Crume. My rental home is 110 yrs. old with a water heater in a crawl space. This was an emergency situation as the cement retaining walls crashed along with several wooden beams. He had very little space, amongst electricians and Terra Firma crews, to stabilize the heater and attach to a new cement wall. I was amazed how he had to maneuver his torso around dirt with about 5" of clearance above his head. Now everything is up to code and working beautifully. He not only has a great personality but is very knowledgeable about old homes and everything plumbing. I would recommend Power Plumbing highly.

Called on Tuesday and got a time slot for Friday. Laura called the next day and said they had someone free and they could come out today. Jake came out and did a fantastic job on a tough commercial plumbing problem problem another plumbing contractor did not want to handle. I could not be more pleased. Thank you Power Plumbing!

We had to get our whole house repiped. I got several bids but most plumbers aren't big enough to do a whole house repipe or had too many extra steps to follow. The biggest plumber in the area who is used to getting all the bids wasn't forthcoming with all the information we needed to make a decision, and I felt bullied and pushed into doing more work than was actually needed (replacing piping that didn't need to be replaced that would have added $3,500 to the price of the job). Power Plumbing came referred by a friend, and I could tell they were different by how thorough the person was who came out to do the estimate. He went into the crawl space and inspected the whole house, noting precisely what did and didn't need to be replaced, so that he could do an accurate bid. While the bid wasn't lower in price, we felt like if anything went wrong while in the middle of the huge job, they would deal with it honestly, so we chose them. The job took an entire week. Every day we left the house for work, during the day, the plumbers came in and worked while we were gone and were gone by the time we got home. Our water service was not interrupted during the time we were in the house. They also cleaned up after themselves like they weren't there at all, which was especially important because the entry to the crawl space is in my child's room and her room looked the same as how she left it. A few years back we had had rodents in our crawl space; the guys found a bunch of dead ones in traps and one day took a bag and cleared them all out and basically cleaned our crawl space for us while they were working, as well. Other plumbers stated that this type of job punches a bunch of holes in our drywall to get to the pipes but the plumbers only opened up one section of drywall behind the washer and did the rest through the crawl space, which I can imagine was more difficult than just going through the walls in the house. The damage to the walls was small enough and not in a visible location, so my husband can replace it without us needing to bring in someone to repair and paint a bunch of holes in the drywall. Other plumbers giving estimates had talked about us needing to bring tile people out to cut through tile so they could access the pipes, creating hundreds if not thousands of dollars more in damage just to get the basic work done. Overall it was surprising how easy this major work was on our family and I was very happy with the choice to use Power Plumbing.

Carl is to main line plumbing what a surgeon is to the circulatory system. Since I had dug up the soil and lifted the culvert, he had the leak that I couldn't find and it's cause diagnosed in 10 minutes. Two treatment plans were offered for potential immediate fix and probable permanent fix. (Hope the Portland Water Bureau will be able to help me with a leakage rebate.) So thankful for his recent visit to bid the job. So fortunate he is in the area and so knowledgeable just like those at U of W who isolated the antibody to shutdown the virus a couple days goes. Carl brings hope, powerful hope to our community's aging infrastructure. If you need real help for a real repair this company has what it takes and is honest about it.

Absolutely ridiculous company. DO NOT USE THEM. They charge you from when they get in the car (not on the worksite.) They take their time doing the job racking their $265 and hour bill. Rude customer service. My experience - they want to charge $1100 for replacing a $40 sink faucet. Terrible Company.

Power Plumbing to the rescue! My sister recommended them to me & they were available first thing the next morning! Great customer service & fast. AND when the City of Portland came out because of an issue with the main street valve - the City of Portland said "they did my kitchen!". Of course they did. Super grateful for their expedient, efficient, affordable & professional work. Turned a super stressful situation in my home to a major relief. Thank you, Josh & Carl!

I called Power Plumbing with a pipe burst and flowing water under our house from the cold weather. Unfortunately, every other plumber was dealing with the same issue all around Portland due to below freezing temps. I was on the wait list with 10 plumbers till calling Power Plumbing. They were so helpful and showed compassion upon hearing my situation. Christine said they were also booked up till the next day but she would try one more option to see if she could help. Little did I know she had called the owner, and within minutes, his truck was pulling up to my house! He quickly discovered the problem and solved the problem within minutes. I will call Power Plumbing for all my future plumbing issues. They provided exceptional customer service and did it with urgency and a smile! Thank you Power Plumbing!

I have used Power Plumbing's services several times and each time I have been more than happy with the work done; everything from unclogging a drain to installing a fixture for me. The women in the service department are very friendly and knowledgeable, and if an event arises they don't know the answer to, they make sure to ask someone who does. My family always uses them and we will continue to do so in the future.
